After all, though our circumstances differ, we have in common our humanity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cPeople have more of an impact than they realise by doing the smallest things,\u201d says Abdulmajid. \u201cIf you can get involved with the community by donating something or volunteering your time, treat it as an investment. Education is truly the best investment of all, with returns that favour everyone. As the saying goes, give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, but teach a man to fish and he can eat for a lifetime.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\">\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2277 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/20200826105258_IMG_5482-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2277\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/20200826105258_IMG_5482-1.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/?attachment_id=2277\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"wp-image-2277 lazyload\" src=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/20200826105258_IMG_5482-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2277\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/20200826105258_IMG_5482-1.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/?attachment_id=2277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/20200826105258_IMG_5482-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/20200826105258_IMG_5482-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/20200826105258_IMG_5482-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/20200826105258_IMG_5482-1-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/20200826105258_IMG_5482-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2278 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-2-cc-1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2278\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-2-cc-1.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/?attachment_id=2278\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" class=\"wp-image-2278 lazyload\" src=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-2-cc-1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2278\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-2-cc-1.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/?attachment_id=2278\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-2-cc-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-2-cc-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-2-cc-1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-2-cc-1.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2279 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-4-cc-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2279\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-4-cc-2.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/?attachment_id=2279\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" class=\"wp-image-2279 lazyload\" src=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-4-cc-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2279\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-4-cc-2.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/sgsupport.com\/?attachment_id=2279\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-4-cc-2.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.sgsupport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Photo-from-Helena-Ros-4-cc-2-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\">Creating a nurturing and constructive environment for refugee children allows them to dream big dreams and aspire to great things.<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>About Fugee<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Founded in Malaysia in 2009, Fugee is a non-profit that helps refugees gain access to education and employment through advocacy, academic and entrepreneurship programmes.
